Well, the expedition started earliest for Tukey, who ran off this morning. He turned up after about 20 minutes of worrying Nija and Greg.

I (Annie) was at Nija's house today anyway, so when I saw the hash point was nearby I told Nija about it. She realized it was right beside her dog park, and Tukey needed, obviously, a chance to run around.

So, about 2:30 we wrapped up and headed for the dog park.

Darn, trouble right out the gate - somebody had hit Nija's car! Gosh foo and shucky darn. After giving a livid Nija time to vent, we set off.

Next obstacle - the dog park gate is like an air lock, with two gates, and the outer one, though in theory unlocked, wouldn't retract the bolt far enough to open. So Nija jumped the gate and opened it from the inside. Go Nija!

Had a great time playing with all the dogs and the very nice community of people who brought their dogs to the park - most of whom know each other and seem to have a nice little community. Surprise! Reverse Pie on us - Mimi brought still warm home made lemon bars.

Eventually we mosey over to the hash point, there's the traditional wandering around with GPS, and we take the obligatory pictures.
